Unplugged: The Impact of Social Media on Women's Mental Health

Have you ever felt drained, overwhelmed, or just off after spending time on social media? You're not alone. In this episode of Healing Her Story, I dive deep into my personal journey of reassessing my relationship with social media and the incredible impact it's had on my creativity, mental health, and overall well-being.

We explore the research on how social media affects women's mental health—how it fuels comparison, self-doubt, and burnout—and why so many of us are feeling called to step away or redefine how we engage with it. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself, struggling with anxiety, or constantly caught in the cycle of doing too much, this conversation will offer you the insight and tools you need to start reclaiming your time, energy, and creativity.

In this episode, I share:

✨ How social media was affecting my nervous system, creativity, and sense of self

✨ Eye-opening studies on how social media impacts women’s mental health

✨ Signs that your relationship with social media may need to shift

✨ Practical ways to set boundaries, reduce comparison, and use social media with intention

✨ How stepping away has allowed me to deepen my healing, create more art, and feel more present in my life

If you’re ready to break free from the scroll, reconnect with your intuition, and find more balance in a world that constantly demands your attention—this episode is for you.
